FROM THE DESK OF HASAN ATTANDAR,
FILE AND COMPUTER DEPT,
STANBIC BANK OF AFRICA,
COTE D'IVOIRE.
Dear Friend ,
I am the manager of file and computer department of (Stanbic Bank Of Africa). I am writing following the impressive information about you through one of myfriends who runs a consultancy firm in your country. He assured me of your capability and reliability to champion this businees opportunity.
In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of US$22(TWENTY TWO MILLION,UNITEDSTATES DOLLARS). In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family in october 2005, in a Car Accident along cocody road. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we can not release it unless somebody applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased as indicated in our banking guidelines but unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died along side with him at the Car Accident, leaving nobody behind for the claim.
It is therefore upon this discovery that I and other officials in my department now decided to make this businness proposal to you and release the money to you as the next of kin or relation to the deceased for safety and subsequent disbursement since nobody is coming for it and we don't want this money to go into the Bank treasury as unclaimed Bill. In fact, I could have done this deal alone, but because I am not allowed to operate a foreign account and would eventually raise an eye brown on our side, during the time of transfer, because I work in this bank.
It require's a second party or fellow who is a foreigner that will present a foreign account to the bank, where he wants the money to be re-transfered into his requested account as it may be,after due verification and clarification to designated bank account. I will not fail to inform you that this transaction is 100% risk free. Therefore, on receipt of your positive response, I will be monitoring the whole situation here in the bank until you confirm the money in your account and ask me to come down to your country for subsequent sharing of the fund and further investment,either in your country or in any other country you may advice to invest on.
All other necessary information will be sent to you when I hear from you. All I require from you is your honest co-peration to enable us see this transaction through. we guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. ALT E-MAIL ADDRESS:hasanattandar@yahoo.com, for more details.
Your's faithfully,
Hasan Attandar.
